Chapter 177: Stone Mountain Transformation
On the radar screen, countless spots of light have disappeared.
In the hierarchical structure of the food chain, each position represents a specific survival strategy and a specific role.
Therefore, when a high-level predator appears, the low-level ones will show enough respect.
Especially when the high-level predator is hungry, the low-level ones will flee.
From the moment Xiao Jian started killing, the position relationship of the new food chain was established, and then all the monsters maintained enough respect for Xiao Jian - running.
And the survival strategy chosen by the little Pekingese, which is not sure whether it is cooperation or deception, although it looks smarter, obviously failed in the end.
Like other monsters, this little Pekingese did not leave a corpse, but only a tuft of curly hair:
[A tuft of curly hair of Li Wangcai]
Sacrifice: Get a relic.
Obviously, the characteristics of the little Pekingese have been squeezed out by Xiao Jian, and the only sacrificial item dropped in the end is a relic.
This time, after this killing, the number of sacrifices in Xiao Jian's hand suddenly reached 13.
Although it doesn't have very good characteristics, it's good to increase the reserve of special leaves.
Although it's a bit regrettable that we couldn't wipe them out completely.
"Next, those monsters probably won't gather like this... but they will definitely plan to attack other settlements."
Xiao Jian said, putting away the existence wave radar, but his eyes turned to Zhang Weidong.
"We have to plan ahead of time. Let's go through all the settlements and put up the defense towers first."
"It really has to be planned ahead of time..." Zhang Weidong sighed, "I hope it's still in time."
"No big problem."
As the owner of the [Mist Walk] feature, Xiao Jian has some understanding of the speed of traveling through the fog:
"They ran too fast just now and didn't have time to open the channel... Without the world fragments as a springboard, their speed will definitely not be faster than ours."
After that, Xiao Jian glanced at Zhang Jinyu: "Well, you tell me the coordinates, and the three of us will go to other strongholds adjacent to the ranch stronghold..."
"I will start building a defense tower at each stronghold, and go to the next one after it is built...try to build at least the defense tower before dark."
After Xiao Jian finished speaking, Zhang Jinyu and Zhang Weidong nodded at the same time.
"Like this..." Zhang Weidong thought for a moment and assigned positions to the three people, "God, you go to Shishan Town, I go to Gangtie Town, Jinyu goes to Youshi Town..."
"Then, God, when you are done in Shishan Town, you can go..."
Zhang Weidong reported a series of numbers completely off the cuff.
Xiao Jian had to take out his mobile phone out of thin air and write them down one by one in his notepad.
Gradually, Xiao Jian also discovered the logic behind Zhang Weidong's reporting of this series of numbers.
First of all, for the Fortress Town, the most important ones are obviously Gangtie Town and Youshi Town.
Although they are not the closest to the Ranch Town, Zhang Weidong still chose to go there with his granddaughter to guard them.
And the "Shishan Town" chosen for Xiao Jian is not the closest place to the Ranch Town...
The reason for this, Xiao Jian guessed that it should be related to the word "Shishan".
After Shishan Town, the numbers began to become continuous...Obviously, this third batch is the most dangerous and the closest to the Ranch Town.
Although considering the overall strength of mankind, Zhang Weidong was not wrong to do so...
"Have those towns sent people to support the fortress town?" Xiao Jian suddenly asked.
The numbers he reported were exactly the ones behind "Shishan Town".
"Uh... no." Zhang Weidong was stunned for a moment, then answered.
"What about material support? There is no such thing?" Xiao Jian asked.
"Uh... no, but not for this reason! I am not retaliating, I am from..." Zhang Weidong explained awkwardly.
"I understand, from the overall situation! I understand very well!" Xiao Jian raised his thumbs, with an expression of "leave it to me".
Then, Xiao Jian flapped his wings and rushed straight to the edge of the fog, opened the fog door and left.
Zhang Weidong opened his mouth, looked back at Wang Youfu and said: "I, I really don't mean anything else."
"Of course! I understand you! But resources are always limited. At the end of the world, the allocation of resources must also have a priority... The tram problem, of course, is to let more people survive."
Wang Youfu also comforted.
"Oh, oh, I really didn't mean that!" Zhang Weidong was anxious.
"Let's go, it will be too late if we don't leave now." Zhang Jinyu didn't care whether his grandfather's previous words had any positional issues.
After that, Zhang Jinyu also spread his wings and flew to the end of the fog in another direction, and finally opened the fog door and left.
"... Oh, mud is stuck to my crotch..." Zhang Weidong followed helplessly and left.
Only Wang Youfu, who was still standing in the same place, rubbed his fingers unconsciously and lowered his head to think about something.
At this moment, a tall, dark and strong female version of Wang Youfu came over: "Brother! Is everything done?"
"Well, it's safe for the time being... No, it should be said that it will be much safer than others for a long time."
Wang Youfu seemed to be a little emotional, and told his sister everything that had just happened.
"...Brother, you are wise." The female version of Wang Youfu said admiringly, "At the beginning, my uncle and his friends were not willing to donate the pig. It's just a pig! We can raise it again after killing it...If something goes wrong with the human, there will be nothing left."
Obviously, Wang Youfu's sister also tacitly agreed with Zhang Weidong's idea.
Wang Youfu shook his head: "In fact, I also think that Zhang Weidong should not have those tricks...but I can't stand that 'god'."
"So, be careful in what you say and do in the future...This guy is a ruthless character who doesn't tolerate any sand in his eyes."
Wang Youfu recalled that Xiao Jian killed the little Pekingese without hesitation, and then remembered what he said.
Things are indeed as Xiao Jian said. The reason why each spirit can become a spirit must be that it has swallowed up an entire world fragment.
So, the spirits that use world fragments as "supplies" and rely on destroying world fragments to gain "authority" are completely hostile to humans living in world fragments.
But before Xiao Jian pointed this out, seeing the little Pekingese wagging its tail and begging for mercy in such a humble manner, even Wang Youfu himself was a little shaken.
However, as Xiao Jian said, this is an absolutely irreconcilable contradiction.
Xiao Jian would rather believe a boss who has been enlightened than believe the sweet words of any monster.
His position is so firm and his understanding is so clear that Wang Youfu, an old man who was considered a successful person before and after the doomsday, has some respect for him.
The respect is not only because the other party has absolute power.
…
The mist vortex opens and dissipates.
Xiao Jian's wings flap lightly, offsetting the inertia when he was thrown out by the mist vortex.
Looking around, Xiao Jian soon knew why this place was called Shishan Town:
Its name obviously comes from the stone peaks surrounding it.
On the exposed stone peaks, a few small trees dotted around grow tenaciously from the cracks in the stones.
The stone peaks are towering into the clouds and are extremely steep.
Looking up, it seems like a huge barrier stands between heaven and earth.
These peaks are steep, with layers of exposed rocks in various shapes, some as sharp as swords, and some as undulating as waves.
Only by standing at the foot of this stone mountain can you deeply appreciate what it means to be a thousand-foot-high cliff.
The town is located on a narrow and dangerous road between the peak and the cliff.
Most of the houses here are stone houses carved out of the mountain wall.
From a distance, these stone houses look like bird nests or tombs, integrated with the entire mountain.
Occasionally, some houses are wooden houses built on the basis of wooden piles after drilling holes in the stone wall.
The walls of the wooden house are painted with light yellow mud, and the roof is covered with thick thatch... It doesn't look as solid as the stone house, but the labor hours consumed are definitely much less.
The entire Shishan Town is strung together by such a narrow and tortuous street.
The street can only accommodate one or two people walking side by side, and the stone and wooden houses on both sides are staggered.
When Xiao Jianfei approached, he could even smell a faint smell of stone dust in the air.
Coupled with the clanging sounds coming from the houses on the stone wall... Obviously, they are constantly expanding their living space.
With such a steep terrain, if it is just to build a defense tower, Xiao Jian obviously does not need to come here.
Therefore, Zhang Weidong's purpose is also very clear-he is looking for materials for Xiao Jian to build a defense tower.
The huge stone mountain in front of him is obviously the best source of stone.
Xiao Jian slowly landed, thinking about how to tell the people here that he wants to move the mountain.
However, as soon as he landed, a short and thick bearded man came out with a group of people.
"Greetings, Lord God." The short and thick bearded man bowed.
Behind him, more than twenty people lined up like a long snake formation, one next to the other, and bowed to Xiao Jian one after another...
"Uh, what are you doing?" Xiao Jian was a little confused by this formation.
"Zhang Weidong said that you are coming... and you are going to help us improve our living environment." The bearded man straightened up and looked at Xiao Jian expectantly, "So, is it true? Lord God?"
"...Yes, it is true." Xiao Jian's smile was a little stiff.
I don't know what means Zhang Weidong used to contact this side, but he clearly meant to let himself come to get stone materials... but it turned out to help the indigenous people of Shishan Town improve their living conditions!
However... it is not wrong to say so.
"Tell me your ideas first." Xiao Jian thought about it and decided to respect the opinions of the indigenous people first.
"Uh, I want a three-bedroom and one-living room, okay?" The short and strong bearded man made a very specific request.
"Uh, this..." Xiao Jian scratched his nose.
"Is it really not possible?" The bearded man was a little disappointed.
"No, no, no, I think you misunderstood." Xiao Jian smiled, "What do you think... how about flattening this mountain? In this way, you can have more squares, dig a reservoir in the middle of the square, and I will bring some soil for you, so that you can farm on the mountain..."
